Jewelry
(*Made in class at Stamps to Di For, Linda Reese, Instructor.)
This is the flag pin I made right after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. I made about 20 and set them out in the lobby at work and people loved them! I ended up making about 20 more the next night. People wanted to pay me for them but I told them to donate to some 9/11 fund. I felt good seeing so many people wearing them at once - from a patriotic standpoint, and of course, from an ego standpoint! Lots of people still have them, pinned to their cubicle walls - and a few people still wear them now and again.
This pin is a combination of about 10 different charms, painted, antiqued and glued together. *
The two largest pins are made from Polymer Clay and the smaller one is made from Friendly Plastic. *
Don't ask, just don't ask. This doll pin is made of shrink plastic and beads, charms and wire.
Let's just say I've never worn it, okay? *
I wear these pins to death. The triangular one is quilt block stamped pieces, covered with Amazing Glaze.
The other one is a real canceled postage stamp (about adoption) layered on a few pieces of paper and
finally on embossed board, antiqued.
Both of these necklaces are made of polymer clay. I wear the heart shaped one a lot. *
This necklace was very fun to make. You use a special tool to wrap the wire into those spirals. *
This bracelet is made of polymer clay and embellished with more clay pieces.
The pin was made in a class - and the inspiration for the above mentioned adoption stamp pin. *
These rolled paper bead bracelets are very fun to wear.
They are threaded on elastic so they'll fit snugly around one's wrist. *
These are dangles, also made of rolled paper beads. These could be used for necklaces or embellishments around the house. They are just fun doo-dads! *
This is a necklace I made for Pam out of polymer clay shaped like a tag.
It hangs on a black cord that you can't see in this picture.
I made a bunch of these pins up in a flash and sold them for 50 cents each at my October clearance sale, at work. I used sparkly white embossing powder stamped on black paper and some on orange paper.
I made these February 2003 - and sold a fair number of the red ones at work.
